Patent EP-0962126-A1 (EP)
Inventor: VAN DEN BERG KAREL
IPC: A01B63/00
Filed: 1999-06-01
Abstract: A soil working machine is provided with measuring
means (4 - 7; 8-11; 4, 12 - 14; 15 - 19; 4, 20, 21) for
determining the current local soil condition. In this manner
the soil treatment can be continuously controlled and optimized.
The measuring means (4 - 7; 8 - 11; 4, 12 - 14;
15 - 19; 4, 20, 21) comprise a measuring element
(4; 8; 4, 12; 15) which is adapted to be moved during a soil
treatment across the soil or at least partially through the
soil, substantially in the direction of travel (V). The
measuring element (4; 8; 4, 12; 15) is fastened to the soil
working machine in such a manner that at least one end of the
measuring element (4; 8; 4, 12; 15) is capable of deviating
both in a direction extending in the vertical plane through
the direction of travel (V) and in a direction extending in
the plane defined by the measuring element (4; 8; 4, 12; 15)
and a horizontal line perpendicular to the direction of
travel (V). In this way the crumbling of the soil can be
measured.

IPC: D03D15/00
Filed: 1999-10-20
Abstract: A composite prepreg material (10) with improved resistance to core crush and
porosity incorporates a plurality of different fiber forms having varying cross-sectional
configurations. Preferably, the fibers are interwoven in a warp (14) and fill (18)
perpendicular orientation pattern. The varying cross-sectional configurations of the
different fiber forms causes the fiber forms to have different levels of spreadability and
frictional resistance to movement of the fiber. The present invention overcomes the
susceptibility to many defects (specifically core crush and porosity) associated with
composite material of a single fiber form having a set cross-sectional configuration, by
incorporating multiple fiber forms having varying cross-sectional configurations. This
multi-fiber form incorporation allows the strengths of one fiber form's properties to
help compensate for the weaknesses of another fiber form's properties, and vice
versa. Many variations of multi-fiber form woven designs can be utilized that
incorporate fiber forms such as ST (standard twist tows); UT (untwisted tows, i.e.
previously twisted and then untwisted tows); and NT (never twisted tows).

Abstract: A method and apparatus for promoting direct contact between flowing gases 9 and
solid particles 15. The particles are subjected to electrostatic forces in a way that
allows the gases and solid particles 34 to flow in countercurrent directions, even at
high gas velocities, with virtually no carryover of fine particles in the outgoing gases
14. Time alternating electrostatic forces are imposed by means of a high voltage
power supply 4, corona discharge electrode 3, and electrically grounded surface 8,
resulting in reciprocating particle motion that enhances the gas to solid contact, and
thus the heat and mass transfer rates.

Abstract: A soller slit is disclosed, which includes a
plurality of metal foils and functions to restrict
divergence of X-rays when arranged on an X-ray optical
path. The metal foils are prepared by sintering a metal
material such that surface thereof have high harmonic
surface roughness. Alternatively, the metal foil has oxides
formed by oxidation on the surfaces thereof such that the
oxides can provide the high harmonic surface roughness. The
high harmonic surface roughness of the metal foil restricts
total reflection of X-rays at the metal foil. Therefore, it
is possible to form high precision parallel X-ray beams by
the soller slit to thereby improve resolution in an X-ray
measurement.

Title: Aircraft with reduced wing loads
Inventor: BILANGE THIERRY
IPC: B64C13/16
Filed: 1999-04-16
Abstract: The system provides a reduction in vibration of aircraft and reduces force on aircraft wings. The aircraft includes a main wing, and aerodynamic depth surfaces controlled by an operating lever (11) which is available to the pilot. This generates a turning command (dm) for the aerodynamic depth surfaces. There is also a front stabilizer (5G,5D) whose planes are partially or totally adjustable under the influence of actuators controlled by a processor (14). This receives, as inputs, the turning command (dm), a measurement of the angle of incidence of the front stabilizer, the Mach number of the aircraft, the altitude of flight and the measurement of vertical acceleration of the aircraft. The processor includes a memory containing a nose-up threshold for the aircraft, the aerodynamic characteristics of the front stabilizer and a first threshold for measuring the vertical acceleration of the aircraft.

Inventor: BOURQUE FRANCIS
IPC: H04W48/12
Filed: 1999-11-29
Abstract: In a cellular communication system (10), such an EDGE Compact system
supporting discontinuous downlink control channel transmissions (12), a
multiframe control channel (100) contains a multiplicity of signalling blocks
(B-B11) partitioned by bursts associated with frequency correction (CFCCH)
and synchronisation (CSCH). A scanning subscriber unit (64-70) wishing to
access the cellular system (10) is designed to take power measurements of an
incident frequency environment to identify a cell capable of providing service to
the subscriber unit. With downlink control channel transmissions sent at full
power by a serving base station (42-56), the multiframe (100) is structured to
ensure that signalling blocks (B0, B3, B6, B9) are regularly transmitted
throughout the multiframe (100). Additionally, with regard to particularly
significant control signalling blocks, such as those of a broadcast control
(CPBCCH) and a paging (CPCCH) nature, these are sequenced into the
multiframe (100) such that any variation in a basic distribution of such control
blocks in the multiframe follows an underlying pattern. In other words, in relation
to CPBCCH and CPCCH logical channels, there is a fixed allocation scheme of
control signalling block transmissions, although interlacing may vary the exact
content of each block according to a defined transmission sequence between
CPBCCH and CPCCH.

Abstract: A marine feed composition is described comprising microbially derived arachidonic acid (ARA) or ARA in the form of a triglyceride. The ARA is suitably produced by a fungus, such as of the genus Mortierella, although the feed composition itself is free of microbial cells. These forms of ARA have been found to give better growth and pigmentation promotion in marine organisms (shrimps and fish) than corresponding phospholipid forms of ARA from fish oil. The ARA can be in the form of an oil, e.g. an oil-in-water emulsion or may first be fed to larvae, rotifers or nauplii which are themselves included in a composition as "live" feed for larger organisms.

Abstract: An LCD having the liquid crystal (114) in at least a portion of the interpixel region displaced by a spacer material (110'). The spacer material (110') has a low dielectric constant relative to the liquid crystal (114), thus further impeding the formation of a bend deformation in the liquid crystal (114) in the interpixel region when pixels on opposite sides of the spacer material (110') are operating in the inversion mode. This elimination of the bend deformation in the interpixel region eliminates the reverse tilt disclination.
